Level 11 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

With the flop showing J♦6♠2♠ Stephen Chidwick had his last 105,000 chips placed out in front of him and was all-in. Yosuke Miki called from the big blind, before Lou Garza raised to 350,000 from under the gun. Miki folded, and the cards went on their backs.

Stephen Chidwick: K♣K♥5♣2♥ All in
Lou Garza: J♠J♣9♣7♣

Chidwick's overpair was behind the set of Garza. The rest of the board ran out 8♥7♥ and Chidwick was one of the first to bust on Day 2.

Nick Vazquez

Level 11 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Arthur Morris limped from the small blind, and Richard Gryko checked his option.

Both players checked on the K♦Q♦8♠ board. On the K♣ turn, Morris checked and Gryko bet 60,000. Morris made the call.

The river was the 9♥, and Morris checked again. Gryko now announced a pot-sized bet. Morris went into the tank, using a time extension, and eventually made the call. Gryko turned over 10♠9♠7♠6♠, and Morris flipped over Q♥6♥4♦3♦ to take down the pot.

Morris was the chipleader to begin the day, and looks to carry that momentum into Day 2.
